Well had a problem with all the running lights not working.found the problem it caught fire in a wally world parking lot. Got it repaired but a 10 gauge wire fell out of the fuse block. Its black with a connector on it that looks like a connector that goes on a electric sending unit for a oil press-or a water temp sending unit on the engine. Does any one have a idea where this black 10 gauge wire goes on the fuse block, thank you, Bob

did the wire come of the engine compartment harness or the light harness? I would take the harnesses off to get a good look at it and you'll probably see where the wire came from. But If you got the repair done by a shop I would take it back to them and I wouldn't touch it.

how did the fire start? I hope you learned to keep a fire extinguisher close, I have one that I carry in my car.
